Subject: 20 game match experiment

Has anyone tried this ... Running a 20 game blitz match with the same
program but labeling the one program A and the other B. So the first
game would for example have Crafty A vs. Crafty B. Then the match would
continue with Crafty B vs. Crafty A and so on.

What would be the results after a 20 game match? What if many 20
game matches were run like this? Could this tell us something about
the predictability of what 20 game match scores tell us? Since the
programs competing are dead equal one would suspect a 10 - 10 result.
I'm curious what might be the range of the match results.

I tried a 10 game match like this a while ago using Rebel 8.
The results of Rebel A vs Rebel B was 6.5-3.5.

If someone has data on this could they post it.
